Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Adult somatic cells can be reprogrammed and become pluripotent called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) when they are induced by the stemness genes. The iPSCs have been representing a research and development platform for cell-based therapies, and even in gene editing technologies as they provide the ability to differentiate almost all cell types. The efficiency of the protocols for the iPSC development defines the success of the experiments' outcome. Here, we describe the optimized protocol for obtaining human iPSCs derived from mesenchymal stem cells of bone-marrow origin to shed a light on the hurdles in the research laboratories.
